Levis Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Namaste everyone! [big]- The #11s Special Top Ten is now open - [/big] :guitar: So in this Special Ten, we're giving all those songs a chance that JUST missed out. You know them... they're your nominations that lost perhaps by one point or three points or in some cases... no points (remember the " " and " " smileys you used?). Here they all get another chance. And the first two to make it become automatic nominations into one of our regular tens. We sifted through the archives and naturally there turned up 64 number 11's. Now 17 of them made it to the final ten on being renominated. So we got rid of them. That left us with 46. The more enterprising among you will add 17 and 46 and notice that the total is 63. but wait - shouldn't it be 64? Aha... ONE of these songs made it to #11 twice! But which one? I'm not telling. It's a cakewalk... you needn't rack your brains and nominate. You merely have to rack your brains and vote. The nominations for The #11s Special Top Ten ... ARE: NOMINATIONS Alabama - Neil Young Allentown - Billy Joel Badge - Cream Band On The Run - Paul McCartney & Wings Be-Bop-A-Lula - Gene Vincent Brand New Key - Melanie Buddy Holly - Weezer Chain, The - Fleetwood Mac Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen Duke Of Earl - Gene Chandler El Condor Pasa - Simon & Garfunkel Everybody Hurts - R.E.M.

c_s_1987 Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 I'm thinking the two time #11 is Smooth Operator. And let me just say that as a man, Lucky's last post offended me deeply. } But ... because I'm a man. I'm pretty much already over it! Re the first comment - the two time #11 isn't Smooth Operator. It made #17 the first time it was nominated. Re the second comment - 1. Badge - Cream 2. Nothing Else Matters - Metallica 3. Never Tear Us Apart - INXS 4. Everybody Hurts - R.E.M. 5. Saturday In The Park - Chicago 6. Under the Milky Way - The Church 7. Crazy Little Thing Called Love - Queen 8. Maybe I'm Amazed - Paul McCartney 9. Zombie - The Cranberries 10.

OLD 55 Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Black Hole Sun has already made the top ten. It made #11 in top ten #31, but also made #2 in top ten #52. It should be taken off the list. Chris very kindly sent this PT. I've made a note on the List - which I compiled and obviously didn't check as thoroughly as I should have. b-f is the only one to have voted for it so far, so I've PT'd him and asked for his new Ten. Sorry All and Thank You Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayzor Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Are you sure Darryl? My top 10 will be nothing but Sister Christian and Eye of the Tiger I would second those noms and put Sister Christian #1 or #2 every time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Is Sister Christian a Nun, or a song Eye Of The Tiger would probably get my vote though. All the Artists ryansgirl voted for above are pretty mainstream ! Who's going to come up with the song that reached #11 TWICE ? Maybe Levis will give you a clue sometime - the Decade or something.

skybluesky Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Darryl, Sister Christian is a rock ballad from the early 1980s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLD 55 Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 By Night Ranger, I know. I think it was nominated recently ? You just have to get used to my so-called sense of humor Sweetie. BTW, all of the #11 Nominations are fine now. I had 'Black Hole Sun' a few out of order in 'Every Song That's Made The Top Tens' and missed it when I checked first time around.
